FUEL ADDITIVES:
I
A variety of fuels may be used in the airplane. When operating in
outside air temperatures of 0°C or colder, each fuel must have an
anti-
icing additive, (EGME) or (DIEGME), incorporated or added to the fuel
during refueling.
I
Make sure the correct
concentration
of anti-icing additive is present in
the fuel if freezing temperatures will be present during any part of any
flight
It is
recommended that fuel anti-icing addltlve be used ro control
bacteria and fungi. The anti-ice additives

through
serviceexperience, that they provide acceptable protection
from microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi that can rapidly
multiply and cause serious corrosion in tanks and may block filters,
screens and fuel metering equipment.
